Log Lana

She and anyone else had to be crazy to imagine she’d win at the Grammys when it was obvious how the industry was pushing Billie
 
The things NFR accomplished with year end lists for 2019 and the decade as a whole is more impressive and honestly holds more weight critically imo than the Grammys do, they are just a popularity contest.
 
But ya I don’t think she will like campaign like she did for NFR ever again lol, especially with this album

Watching her face fall at this year's Grammys was upsetting and distressing. I never want to experience that again, and I don't think she does, either.
 
Don't need no Grammys
 

my thoughts exactly
 
I truly admire her for that

She revealed the NFR album cover and tracklist the day before it was made for pre-order - she also announced that Violet would be available for pre-order a day before. 
I think it's highly plausible that she'll post the COTCC album cover and tracklist on August 4, then - only 12 days! 

omfg the detective work on lanaboards never fails to amaze me. sherlock holmes is shaking!!! he could never!!
 
seriously, i’m excited!!! i hope this means pre-order!!!

god i hope this is real i'm craving something official from this era

@@IanadeIrey Honestly that's some seriously good detective work you did there <3

In the source code of her webstore, the date 05/08/2020 shows up as a starting date for some action, which I'm thinking is the pre-order, set for August 5, 2020. 
 
I know some of you may be thinking that 05/08/2020 could be May 8, 2020, but I also found the date 2020.07.13 in her source code, which would be year, month, date. Reverse that, and you have date, month year.
 
Date: 5
Month: 8 
Year: 2020
 
And this would be roughly a month before the release date. I know we've been speculating this already but I hope this offers some concrete evidence!

The "HotJar Code" basically tracks activity - which would point to recording the amount of traffic her site gets when the album is made available for pre-order!

Not until 2022. The eligibility period ends August 31. The album is released on September 5.
 
At next year’s Grammys (2021) Lana is already eligible for Spoken Word Album (“Violet”) and Best Music Video (Norman Fucking Rockwell).
 
If a song from the next album drops before August 31, then that would be eligible for Record and Song of the Year as well as Pop Solo Performance.

adding to this — merch! nfr had cute merch but seeing as we are in the middle of a pandemic, would we only get the basic shirts and jumpers with like the album cover?

Just a heads up: There are now FIVE vinyls available for Violet (Black, Picture Disc, Lana Store Cream, Indie Store Green, UO Sky Blue), plus the Cream Cassette and CD.
 
If there's a similar merch line-up for Chemtrails, you better start saving up cause it's looking like this will be an expensive era.

I've honestly never heard of Zella, but am I the only one who doesn't really want any collabs?
Btw my crazy uncle believes in Chemtrails. He lives on the countryside & says he can see the government distributing rain from helicopters every morning

Those lyrics are giving me "In the cock" vibes
I think December 31st is used as a placeholder. It means it will definitely come this year but they don't know when yet, so they take the latest possible date.

not sure if this has been posted but... https://www.urbanoutfitters.com/shop/lana-del-rey-violet-bent-backwards-over-the-grass-limited-lp?category=vinyl-records-cassettes&color=045&type=REGULAR&size=ONE%20SIZE&quantity=1

I've emailed the universal store enquiring about the 2 cassette tapes included in the bundles... Will update if they reply

actually im ready for a surprise drop just like taylor. it would be iconic. no leaks for the first time, no snnipets, no ideia what she is preparing for us.. a full shook album

I love taylor! I cant wait for this album! Also its 16 tracks and came out less than a year since Lover, thats pretty cool especially since Lover was also a very long album (18 tracks) so this gives me hope that COCC could be a longer album too

In all honesty, all I really want is the cover and tracklist. Actually, I wouldn't mind if she didn't drop any song before the album's release

Seems a little strange. It might potentially come with some fancy packaging?
